Bond Ball Mill Grindability Test. The Bond Ball Mill Work Index (BBWi) test is carried out in a standardised ball mill with a pre-defined media and ore charge. The Work Index calculated from the testing can be used in the design and analysis of ball mill circuits. The test requires a minimum of 10kg of sample that has been stage-crushed to ...

Based on the defined first-order grinding kinetics in the Bond ball mill, a procedure has been developed for the rapid determination of the work index (Wi) by means of just two grinding tests. The applicability of the proposed abbreviated procedure has been proved on samples of copper and iron ore. The differences between the values of the …

The present study investigates the propensity of predicting ore grindability characteristics and varying pulp densities through acoustic measurements on the Magotteaux ball mill. Specifically, the grinding behaviour of two different mill feeds (model quartz and iron ore) together with solid loadings (50, 57, and 67 wt% solids) were …

The work index values indicate the energy requirements in reducing the particle size. Hard ores possess higher work index values than softer rocks. In the present research, the BHJ ore showed a higher (15.4 kWh/ton) work index value than the BHQ ore (12.4 kWh/ton). Work index values showed an increasing trend with decreasing product …

The Bond work index (kW.h/st ore), a constant for any product discard size, is calculated from the following Bond-derived [6] equation: Wi = 1.6 (p.) 0-5 (0) Gi0.82 where Pi is the product discard mesh size opening in micrometers, and Gi is the grindability for a given product mesh size. The work index, Wi, is

Ores are additive if the grindability of an ore blend is the same as the weighted average grindability of the ore types in the blend (e.g., Van Tonder et al. 2010 and the references therein). To evaluate grindability of an ore with notable internal variability in mineralogy and texture, larger homogenised test batches are needed to …

The grindability of raw material is generally determined by Bond's standard ball mill grindability test (developed by the Allis Chalmers company). The ball mill grindability test is used for describing ore hardness and it is so widespread that the Bond Work Index generated from the test is often referred to as an ore characteristic.

The grindability of an ore in the process of mineral dressing can be determined by use of the Bond work index ( Wi ). This index is determined on a laboratory-scale using a Bond ball-mill and by simulating dry grinding in a closed circuit until the 250% circulating load has been obtained. This happens only after 7–10 grinding cycles, which ...

It is a well-known fact that the value of the Bond work index (wi) for a given ore varies along with the grinding size. In this study, a variability bysis is carried out with the Bond standard grindability tests on different critical metal ores (W, Ta), ranging from coarse grinding (rod mills) to fine grinding (ball mills).

The work carried out in this context focuses on three different samples of iron ore, viz., high silica high alumina, low silica high alumina, and low silica low alumina. The grinding process for all the three iron ores is carried out individually in Bond's ball mill and the total retention time taken by each iron ore sample is calculated.
